Misapplying the Income Tax by Hiding Legal Definitions of Familiar Words
Because references were deliberately omitted, nobody knows that Section 7701 defines the familiar words “individuals,” “persons,” and “taxpayers” to mean foreigners outside the United States — not citizens or residents inside the United States. By using plain English meanings and ignoring the limits of withholding, the tax has been misapplied inside the United States since 1916.

From Medicine to Unmasking the Truth
Dr. Tom Clayton, a seasoned medical professional with a background in pure mathematics insists that rules be obeyed to avoid mistakes. With no quality issues the entire time he has been practicing, he wanted to know why tax advisors and the IRS had been making many mistakes during the same amount of time?
What were they missing? He discovered that since 1913, tax experts have misunderstood withholding, assuming that citizens and residents inside the United States are required to pay federal income tax on their domestic income. But Congress repealed the 1913 domestic income tax in 1916.
Since then, legal definitions of familiar words and withholding prove that the tax only applies to foreigners outside the United States and citizens or residents with foreign employers or foreign income. Citizens and residents with purely domestic income have been excluded from the tax the entire time.

Real Reactions From Readers
“Tom’s book opened my eyes. It’s easy to read and uses search engines to prove that the income tax law only applies outside the United States.”
– A.W., Lawyer
American Citizens inside the United States
By using the power of search engines, American citizens can see that they are taxed only when they have employers who are located outside the United States (Section 861).
The law itself contradicts the “Administrative State” — a complex web of unelected self-regulated federal lawyers acting as judge, jury, and executioner for an income tax inside the United States that has not existed since 1916.
Unmasking the Tax Code
Federal lawyers have misapplied the income tax inside the United States by using plain English meanings of some familiar words that have legal meanings. Because Congress omitted references to Section 7701, nobody knows that citizens or residents of the United States are taxed only when they have employers outside the United States.
